Get Selected Item From A List?
Aug 3, 2010
i have a sub that checks all drives on a computer;
Dim getInfo As System.IO.DriveInfo()
getInfo = System.IO.DriveInfo.GetDrives
For Each info As System.IO.DriveInfo In getInfo
TextBox1.Text = TextBox1.Text & info.Name & vbCrLf
Next
this shows all drives in textbox1. now if i select the drive i want, i can then check the free & total space with this sub;
Dim cdrive As System.IO.DriveInfo
cdrive = My.Computer.FileSystem.GetDriveInfo(TextBox1.SelectedText)
TextBox2.Text = TextBox1.SelectedText & " has " & cdrive.TotalSize / 1024 / 1024 / 1024 & "gb total space" & vbCrLf
TextBox2.Text = TextBox2.Text & "and " & cdrive.TotalFreeSpace / 1024 / 1024 / 1024 & "gb free space"
all this is good if i select the drive i want to check. but if i only click the drive, since no text is selected, the second sub does not work.is there a way to check at which index the cursor is, grab the item of the index, and pass it to the sub so i don't have to select the text itself?

I'm having some difficulty with a sorted & grouped listbox in WPF vb.net 3.5 that has an items source bound to an ObservableCollection.
What I want to be able to do is to retrieve a piece of data from the ObservableCollection items source depending on what item in the listbox the user has selected.I've almost got it working but because the listbox is sorted it does not match the index of the items source.
[code]...
As I previously mentioned, because the lstBox is sorted and also grouped the index's don't match up.Does anyone know how I can get the correct information I want from the List Source depending on the selected item in the list box?

can't seem to find the answer to this anywhere.I need to know how to add an item in a list box above the currently selected item. I know there is a RemoveAt function which removes selected but is there any way to control where an item is added?

I'm having a problem with a program I am re-making. I used to be quite good at this stuff but I stopped and now I've pretty much forgotten everything. In hopes of gaining my knowledge back, I wanted to remake a program I made years ago but I'm having a problem.
I'm trying to split a selected item in a list box. This is what the item looks like:
|DATA|DATA|DATA|DATA/ELSE|
I can split it fine using this code:
Private Sub ListBox1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ListBox1.Click
Dim LineofText As String

in VB10 Express is there a way to verify that something in a list box has been selected BEFORE an action can be taken? I was debugging and found an unhandled error when I accidentally told the program to do something, but there was nothing selected.

My listbox is bound to a datatable. The listbox is initially set to not show any data using selectedindex = -1.I have a second listbox that populates based upon the entry selected in listbox1. I use the Bindingsource PositionChanged event to populate the 2nd listbox.My problem is when the 1st entry in the listbox is selected the PositionChanged event does not fire, because the row selected is the default current position of the bindingsource. Can the Bindingsource be set to a "Null" position, I tried Position = -1 and that has no effect.

I've worked out how to create a DropDownList using the following code: <select id="salesPersonDropList" runat="server"></select> In my .aspx page, then my code behind loops through database output running:
Dim newListItem As ListItem
newListItem = New ListItem("Title", "Value")
salesPersonDropList.Items.Add(newListItem )
What I can't figure out is how to programatically set which of the List Items created is the one to be pre-selected in the rendered DropDownList, ie, how to create what I'd write in HTML as:

VB.NET Winforms Application... When a user starts typing in the search box of the application it automatically populates the name list dropdown box with the valid results and sets the droppeddown value to true... Everything is working fine except the fact that the user is forced to select a value from the name list or press the esc key because without doing so the mouse cursor just disappears and you have to move the mouse all the way outside the application for it to come back and it will only do so while outside the applicaiton.. Below is the code that I am using for this and it should be noted that I am using the droppeddown value else where in the application and none of those instances have an issue its only this one..
Private Sub u_lastName_Box_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles u_lastName_Box.TextChanged
u_nameLook_Box.Items.Clear()

I am creating a program that allows a user to view a list of foods in a combo box, add that food unto a list box, and adds all of the calories of that food together. When the user highlights their select food, the program automatically shows the amount of calories for that particular food in a text box. The program is getting the food and calorie information from an access database. I managed to get all of the food calories to add up properly, however, I ran into a problem. Sometimes, well, most of the time, when I select certain foods from the combo box, the program automatically reselects another random food, usually a food that begins with either an A, B, or C. Also, the other random food that the program chooses usually has the same amount of calories as the food I originally wanted to choose. I have over 6,000 items in the database. I don't understand why this is happening. This is what my code looks like for the button that adds each food to the list box:
Private Sub Button4_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button4.Click
Foods_Selected.Items.Add(ComboBox1.Text)
Static i As Single
[CODE]...
And this is what my code looks like for the button that adds all of the foods together:
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim x As Single
Dim TotalCalories As Single
[CODE]...
I have no idea what to try. It's like the program just skips over random foods, even though all of the information for them is in the database.

I have a list box on the form which functions as a copy/paste. When you copy something, it is automatically added to the list box as a "clipboard helper". Here is the problem,however: if the text is more than 1 line, the list box does not show all the text.It ends up looking messy.So getting back to my question, is it possible to make the list box item height for an item depending on the amount of lines that item contains?This is a one line sentence in the list box and should take up one line.This is a multi line sentence in the list box and should take up two lines for item height.

Ok, so I have a listview on one form, and when a button is pressed it opens up a new form with the contents of the selected listview item and it's subitems in a series of textboxes. The user can then change the data in the textboxes and either press save to make the changes or cancel to close the window. What command would I use to change the selected listview item and subitems to whatever is in the boxes?
this is the code that populates the boxes:
Private Sub Form_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim appeditcontents As String = main.passlist.SelectedItems(0).ToString

I am making a password program that remembers what the password is for and what the password is. I have two listboxes: 'listbox1' for what the password is for, and 'listbox2' for the password. I also have a remove button. I would like it so when you press the remove button, the selected item in listbox1 is removed and the password in listbox2 is also deleted. The passwords are stored in two settings: what, and pw. The items that will be deleted will have the same value. By value i mean they will be the same number item. E.G. the 1st item, or the 3rd item in the list.

How someone would select an item from a list box and click a button and have that item go into another listbox with it's price? I seem to be stuck on this part.
Here's my code:
I want to select the first option from the first listbox and I want to put it into another listbox along with the price of that item on the same line in the listbox. I can't seem to figure out how to that.

Const dcmPRICE_STRESS As Decimal = CDec(595.0)

my program downloads into a combobox every item(line) that is in a text file located on a server.
Every line in the text file ends with "a)" or with "g)".
Now I just want to make 3 radio buttons:
- one that will allow the download in the combobox only the item ending with "g)"
- one that will allow the download in the combobox only the item ending with "a)"
- one that will allow the download in the combobox of both (I already know how to do).
How can I do so?
To download the entire list in the combobox I do:
Dim List As String = client.DownloadString("http://mywebsite.com/mytextfile.txt)Dim lines As String() = List.Split(New String() {ControlChars.CrLf}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)ComboBox1.Items.Clear()
ComboBox1.Items.AddRange(lines)

I have a list, and in my items are labeled like this:
"Work sound ex 0"
"Work sound ex 0"
"Home sound ex 14"
"Home sound ex 15"
"Home sound ex 16"
How can I just send the number in the selected list item to a variable so only "0", "14", "15", "16", etc. is sent and not the words like "home" or "sound"?
